Aside from their The View performance, I thought this was their best one by far. I loved how the ensemble did the Magic hand movements while entwined in the Xanadu sign, and how the I'm Alive choreography was slowed down. It really worked well! And technically, just about everything worked in their favour.
But seriously, it does look like they're spending some bucks on the Tony performance, but would it kill them to have someone bring in suitable costume alternates? It's starting to look like they raided the Jujamcyn vault for the Wedding Singer costumes.
But I'm starting to feel a lot better about how they'll show at the telecast, this was definitely a step in the right direction.
